Apartment 4J sits on a tree-lined street between 5th and 6th Avenues in Greenwich Village’s highly sought-after Gold Coast. Designed by the renowned Sara Gilbane and featured in Better Homes and Gardens, this residence showcases a flowing floor plan that combines open spaces, distinct spaces, architectural detail, bold design, and perfectly proportioned rooms, to embody comfort, elegance, and high-end design.
As you enter the grand foyer, painted in a high-gloss finish with a gold leaf ceiling, you are greeted by a spacious living room offering tree-lined views of the building's private perennial garden. The room's sunny southern exposure makes it a delightful space year-round, and the breakfast nook creates multiple settings in the large space. Adjacent to the living room is a winterized sunroom, providing the perfect spot for enjoyment while overlooking the tranquil garden. Throughout the apartment, bold printed wallpapers infuse a sophisticated tropical-meets-mid-century ambiance to the space.
The kitchen, seamlessly connected to the dining area, features custom white cabinetry, white Caesarstone countertops, and a fresh green and white tile backsplash. It is equipped with top-of-the-line appliances including a Subzero fridge, Miele dishwasher, Wolf four-burner range with griddle, Wolf microwave, 24-bottle wine fridge, generous storage, and a convenient coffee bar. The dining room, with its lush and cosmopolitan wallpaper and Apparatus Cloud chandelier, overlooks 13th Street, adding to the overall allure.
The generously sized bedrooms are flooded with sunlight, creating bright and airy spaces. The primary suite boasts a large walk-in closet and an en suite bathroom with a spacious stall shower adorned in marble tiles. Two additional bedrooms share a well-appointed hall bath. Each room offers ample space, southern exposures, good storage, and serene treetop views. The fourth bedroom, located off the kitchen, serves as a versatile space that is currently used as an office and guest bed. It has two large windows and features an en suite bath.
Some notable highlights of this residence include the abundance of natural light and thoughtful details throughout. This impeccably maintained home has recently undergone renovations, including new Skyline windows, hardwood floors, HVAC with individual thermostat control, fully outfitted closets, and custom built-ins that add both architectural interest and efficient storage solutions.
